This book provides an overview of fetal psychobiological research,
focusing on brain and behavior, genetic and epigenetic factors
affecting both short and long-term development, and technological
breakthroughs in the field. These focal points intersect throughout
the chapters, as in the challenges of evaluating the fetal central
nervous system, the myriad impacts of maternal stressors and
resiliencies, and the salience of animal studies. It also discusses
specific monitoring and assessment methods, including
cardiotocography, biomagnetometry, 4D ultrasound, in utero MRI, and
the KANET test. Spanning assessment, identification, and pre- and
postnatal intervention, the book weighs the merits of standardized
evaluations and argues for more integrative research in the future.
Included in the coverage: Effects on the fetus of maternal anxiety,
depression, and stress during pregnancy. Clinical and experimental
research in human fetuses and animal models. Observational research
including the use of behaviors in developing tests to assess fetal
health. Fetal auditory processing and implications for language
development. Fetal effects of prenatal exposure to selective SRI
antidepressant exposure. Structural and functional imaging of the
prenatal brain. The effects of alcohol exposure on fetal
development. Fetal Development: Research on Brain and Behavior,
Environmental Influences, and Emerging Technologies is an essential
resource for researchers, clinicians and related professionals, as
well as students in a wide range of fields such as developmental
psychology, pediatric and obstetrical medicine, neuroscience,
nursing, social work, and early childhood education.
